Most people wouldn't know this, but the strongest part of the plastic wheelie bin is the lip of the bin, since they were actually originally designed to be clamped onto by the lip of the bin. It also helps with structural integrity. I know Cleanaway had a rather special compactor truck that clamped onto the very front of the bin lip, and had a secondary metal clamp that simply pushed down onto the bin and pinned the bin by the lip so it could be picked up and emptied. It was a long time ago though. Probably been retired, most other clamping mechanisms are a rubber strap.
I wish my area used those bins. Everything is manual except apartments & Business. They have bins that get lifted near the top at the front, and they have a bar near the bottom that the lift grabs so the bin doesn't fall. The tops of the bins, and the grab bars break all the time.
Looking good! The quality is noticeably better, especially the sound. You can really hear those bags having a bad day towards the end! Would love to see the inside-body perspective again too sometime.
Iv thought of ways to do another in body. Not going to be happening with a $600 camera. I’m looking on marketplace etc for cameras around. Maybe one day 👍🏽
Nitro: "Ah ya ...." SPAK: "I will crush it anyway!" These plastic wheelie bins usually lose to a decent compactor mechanism. I've seen a garbo toss a wheelie bin into a hopper, the bin had plastic fatigue causing it's plastic to snap and fail and not be properly picked up by the clamping mechanism, or get stuck on it. The compactor doesn't care, it just eats it. They usually take the metal post holding the wheels onto the bin off of it first. SPAK just crushed all of it in several passes of the blade.
oh!!! bull shit the bin stuck, you could not get the bin out, ya barely grabbed the lip, grab the BASE pull it towards ya - hope the homeowner got TWO bins for the one you needlessly destroyed
Okay maybe you are a bit too arrogant for who you are but try to get on a step, not even a ladder a step that is wet from dew and try to carefully pull that bin out without falling to the ground… The bin is clearly pinned between the packer and the wall. F off will ya?
These pendulums take care of business, packed that bin no worries. Paddle would’ve taken ages as I’ve seen in other videos. What caused those bins to fall in ?
